Medical and mental health care for people ready to make sense of the whole story so you can become your own reference point again.

 

You may have been through doctors, diagnoses, treatments, and “normal” labs and still feel awful. Or maybe you’ve avoided care because you’re tired of being gaslit and don’t trust what happens when you walk through the door. You want someone with medical training to take a serious look, without assuming the answer is another pill.

I’m Veronica Johnson, a holistic family and psychiatric nurse practitioner. We look at your whole story: when symptoms began, what has helped or made things worse, and where things went off track. That includes your physical and mental health, sleep, relationships, habits, family of origin and ancestral patterns, trauma, and what’s happening in your life right now. If medications are part of your story, we look carefully at those too, because I’ve seen plenty of meds cause more problems than they’re worth. Then we decide together what needs attention now. And what doesn’t.

When the pieces don’t fit

Maybe you’re trying to understand symptoms no one has explained. Maybe you’re dealing with an autoimmune condition, compulsive behavior, a relationship that has worn you down, or a psych med you’re afraid to change. Some people arrive with all of the above. Bodies rarely sort their problems into the same neat categories as healthcare does.

We start by bringing all the pieces into the same room: your medical and mental health history, relationships, family of origin, daily habits, and what happened after previous treatments. We use labs when they can help answer a question, therapy to untangle the past from the present, and coaching to help you put changes into practice. There’s room for deeper psychospiritual work too.

I call this approach Rhythm Medicine™ because we look at both the patterns in your story and the rhythms of your daily life. That helps us decide what needs attention, what can wait, and how to make changes without losing sight of the whole you.

I’ll tell you what I think is happening and what I recommend we do next. If I think a change would be unsafe right now, I’ll say so. We’ll talk it through, and what you’re actually experiencing in your body will guide our decisions.

Along the way, I want you to understand your own patterns well enough to question what doesn’t make sense and regain agency over your mind, body, and life.

This takes more work than anyone can squeeze into an eight-minute appointment. That’s why I built The Untangling.

The Untangling

Clear the noise. Find your rhythm.

A four-month deep dive into the whole picture.

When you’ve accumulated symptoms, diagnoses, medications, supplements, specialists, conflicting advice, or years of trying to figure it out yourself, it can be hard to know what’s helping, what’s hurting, and what actually matters.

If you’re ready for care that looks at the whole person instead of treating each part in isolation, The Untangling is where we begin.

Hi, I’m Veronica.

I don’t separate the body from the mind—or either from the story you’ve lived.

Most of the people I work with have already tried to “do it right.”
They’ve followed the plans, seen the specialists, taken the medications…
and still don’t feel like themselves.

My work is about slowing things down enough to actually understand what your body has been trying to say all along.

I’m trained as both a family and psychiatric nurse practitioner, with a background in cardiology and critical care.
Alongside that, I’ve spent years studying and practicing functional medicine, nervous system regulation, and the deeper emotional patterns that shape how symptoms show up in the body.

This work grew at the intersection of both worlds—clinical training and lived experience—where I realized real healing rarely happens when you treat one system at a time.

You don’t need more information.
You need space to hear what your body has been trying to say.

The world is loud right now.

More information.
More urgency.
More conflicting advice.

And somewhere along the way, many people stopped trusting their own bodies.
